How do I go about obtaining an LDAPv3 annonymous bind with
perl-ldao-0.22? If I use "bind( version => 3)", I get an
LDAP_INAPPROPRIATE_AUTH error message and the OpenLDAP (LDAPv3) debug
trace shows an LDAPv2 bind request. If I bind with a defined DN and
password I can obtain an LDAPv3 bind, but I don't want to have to fully
authenticate just to get an LDAPv3 bind.  Thank you.

If you read the Net::LDAP manpage for 'bind', you should see that you need
to do this:

	$ldap->bind(anonymous => 'ignored', version => 3);

Alternatively, this should also work:

	$ldap = Net::LDAP->new('hostname', version => 3);
	$ldap->bind();

Cheers,

Chris
